Scripting and Batch Processing

For example, if a script was recorded with the current-time indicator at 0:10:00, selecting
this option applies the script at the current cursor position, plus 10 seconds: If the current
cursor position is at 0:05:00, the script would start at 0:15:00.

If you’re likely to run a script at the current cursor position, record the script with the
cursor at a 0:00:00 position, and select this option when you run it.

Script Type

Scratch works with all files closed; Script Works On Current Wave works on an entire
waveform; and Script Works On Highlighted Section works on the selected part of a
waveform.
